Convert 0.600 atm of pressure to its equivalent in millimeters of mercury. express the pressure numerically in millimeters of mercury.

Answer is 456 mmHg.

Explanation;

This is a simple unit conversion problem.

1 atm = 760 mmHg

Hence,

0.600 atm = (760 mmHg / 1 atm) x 0.600 atm

                 = 456 mmHg

Pressure can be measured by using many units such as atm, Pa, torr, bar, cmHg, mmHg and so on.

The relationships among those units as follows

1 atm = 101325 Pa = 1.01325 bar = 760 torr, 760 mmHg = 76 cmHg

LiDAR is an acronym for ‘light’ and ‘radar,’ a tool developed to detect targets and to use reflected light off of objects as a kind of visual sonar. Light Detection And Ranging (LiDAR) can determine how far objects are away from each other by shining a laser onto a target and analyzing the light that bounces back. LiDAR is used to create incredibly detailed maps in addition to assisting researchers in the fields of geography, archeology, geology, seismology, atmospheric sciences, laser studies, and much more.

LiDAR’s first applied use was in the 1960s and came soon after the invention of lasers. Used in combination with radar, LiDAR was originally used in atmospheric studies to measure clouds by the National Center for Atmospheric Research. LiDAR later became more publically known when the Apollo 15 mission used it to map the surface of the moon more accurately than ever before.
